Half of America is Germany
In America, there are more German than British. But I don't understand why they chose English as the national language over German.
@@jurjitsingh3728 Historically, the Founding Fathers who founded the 13 Colonies were all Anglo-Americans and most of them were apart of the Anglican-Episcopal Church of the USA, so they spoke English. America is influenced by the British Empire and with some Celts from the Scots, Welsh, and Irish. They spoke with English accents just like the English did. They started to invent American English in the early 1800s, or maybe after the War of 1812 to become different from the English.

“Yeah, my name is Peter.”

My great grandfather became a Canadian medic in WW1 because he didn't want to fight against his people.
My other great grandfather became a Lewis gunner, so different mindsets.
Quite happy my family didn’t turn out like this.. my Great Grandpa was pretty much ethnic German minus the fact he was born in America, his parents were both fully German.. in ‘41 he joined the U.S. Army to join the infantry, but during boot-camp he was hurt because another trainee had fallen on top of him. He spent a few weeks in the hospital and recovering due to him tearing something.. once he returned they had to cut him because the unit was full with 32 men.. and he was one of the 5 cut off because of his weeks in hospital and his last name started with Z.. so he joined the Army Air Corps.. he flew in the European Theatre of the war, and returned home safely where he had my Nana in the late 50’s..
RIP Grandpa.

My grandpa was the son of a German mother and he served in the US Army Air Corps. I’m glad our families remembered where they belonged...

Friendship between former Enemies, especially Americans and Germans was very common after WW2.
I know that out of first hand experience as a German who grew up with a whole Family of WW2 Veterans from the Waffen-SS (not Allgemeine SS) to the Wehrmacht, Kriegsmarine and Luftwaffe. I grew up in a Town with a US Military Base and my Relatives often had their former American "Enemies" over for BBQ in the Summer.
Those were usually American WW2 Vets who decided to stay in Germany after being stationed here. Often moving their Wives (and in some cases also Kids) over here.
To this day one of my Grandfathers who was a Wehrmacht and later Waffen-SS Soldier and fought Americans in the Battle of the Bulge (Ardennenoffensive) is alive, he turned 100 on the 2nd September. Only one of those former American "Enemies" and now Friends is still alive at 98. They don't meet much anymore for obvious Reasons, but they're still Friends
Imagine being sentenced to prison time in "Liberty Jail"
Then eating liberty cabbage all day while guarded by liberty hounds. At least the latter is good.

At the onset of WWII many Italian Americans joined the military knowing they'd be fighting their own families in Italy. They did this without hesitation. Same with many Japanese Americans. They were thanked by having their families rounded up and thrown into camps and forced to live in squalid conditions.
I'm part Italian and always wondered what it must've been like to have to kill people that shared the same ancestry as you. That must've been really tough.
@@NJRacer623 A lot of that had to do with them being part of Italian mafias. It was their chance to claim or wipe out rival gangs.
They didn’t put Japanese American soldiers in the Pacific, only Europe. Not because they thought they would defect but because they didn’t want them being confuse for the enemy.

My grandparents emigrated from Germany to the US in the mid-30s. When the US joined the war my grandfather was drafted and sent to Africa to fight. When it came to invade Italy they sent him home because he was a full blooded German and the Army didn't want to cause an incident (someone thinking he's a spy, him defecting to the other side, etc) so they sent him home.

They were traitors, since they fired at there fellow country man, and that one who stole a plane.
I can understand if wanted to fight the Soviets, but against there own country man? No. Just no.
Americans: But why did they joined the very enemy, we don’t get it! »
@@saguntum-iberian-greekkons7014 I don't deny the fact that German Americans were treated badly, during the 1st World War. But likewise, Catholic Irish, the Polish, and the Chinese were treated very badly prior to WW1.
In fact, the German Immigrates had it fair more easyer time, immigrating to America, since most were protestant, and had a working culture. It was only during the first World War, that Germans were treated badly of the first time.
Plus, many did fear that German Americans would riot, and revolt against America for going to war against Germany.
I can't blame them if they wanted to defend there ancastral land from, the Soviets. But America was there adopted Country, and they fought against there fellow country man.
If that's not traitorous, then I don't know what is.
It was deserved. Nothin more to it
@@apoc0110 what was deserved?
@Simple History you missed mentioning that ethnic germans were interned or detained by the US Federal Government during the war, which may also explain some of the reasoning as to the defections to fight for Germany. There were some cities such as New Ulm, MN where the majority of the population was ethnic german that were stopped from leaving the city by the US government throughout the war.
You never hear that. . . but surely we hear of the Japanese being interned. You also never hear of the bombing of Dresden and how many civilians were killed. But you surely hear of how American Soldiers were killing "innocent" villagers in Vietnam. Communists were busy subverting our government much earlier than people realize.

Always love Lea Occhi's style. Delicate, always moving, spacious. Mixes with a light touch.
One of my elderly friends (passed away several years ago) was a forward artillery observer under Patton's army. He was apparently really good at snatching prisoners, and often got that job. He told me one time he grabbed a German soldier around the time of the Bulge......got him back to their rear area and started talking to him.....turns out he was from Wisconsin, about an hour or two from our town here in NE Iowa. Same deal as mentioned here- the parents packed up and moved to Germany in 39'. He spoke perfect english, graduated from high school in Wisconsin, and moved with the family. After the war and spending time in an American POW camp, the guy from Wisconsin moved back here and he and my old friend became lifelong friends. My older friend met a german girl at the end of the war and he brought her home after they did their hitch occupying Germany after the war. Super neat people, got to meet them all at the VFW as a kid going to meetings with my dad.
Well seems like he’s lucky, the allies did a lot of trials it seemed on otherwise innocent people.
Wow, that's such a nice story, it's good you kept memories like that alive, many were lost because not many people bother to listen or the vets didn't like re living the terrible days. They truly were the greatest generation.

I was told that some German Americans went back to Germany to fight the US even though they were born and raised in the US. I was told that Japanese Americans returned to Japan with their parents and end up fighting for Japan against the US. The stories were told by WWII soldiers or people whose brothers fought against the US. The world history is filled with similar stories and any war is a disaster for all.
War against an unmatched evil is the only just cause for war
Alternative title:
Americans thought they were Italians and switched sides
There are pretty neat stories of Italian American soldiers fighting in Italy and coming across distant relatives
How the **** that makes sense

Looking at modern events maybe the US should have sided with Germany against the Soviet Union.
Why because of Ukraine ? Ukraine is a horrible country they commit as many Atrocities as Russia

The small hats have always been professional deceivers.
A third of Americans have German ancestry, People from over 50 countries fought for Germany and not necessarily of German descent. A million Russians fought in the German army and a million other foreign nationals fought in the German army and the waffen SS, including 60 thousand fore-skinless ones. The U-toob algorithm would not like that at all.
It is pretty sad that German Americans were shamed over their culture in WW1 despite the fact that they were among the many immgrant groups that contributed to American culture with Christmas Trees, beer, and hot dogs/hamburgers
Yup. I agree
kinda interesting considering the most common ethnicity in the us is Germanic
And wanton, rampant, ingrained racism. 👌🏾
@@combinationpizzahutandtaco3782 i mean i think i remember hearing that Queen elizabeth herself is part german lmao

Nobody's stopping you from going back to Wakanda...🖕🏻
My great grandfather worked for Henry Ford in a high level position. FDR and Ford paid for thousands of workers to move back to Germany and set up factories.
Amazing vid
